Really liking the headlight / oil cooler / handle bar setup!

Thanks for the info on weight, just trying to eventually figure out what different parts make up the weight on these bikes.

Any chance of a frame and tank(s), plus an MSO for the frame?

I don't see a huge market for it as is, but I'm no expert. A reasonably priced frame and tank(s), with an MSO... I'd be sending in a check in a hurry!

Not to bust your balls, but I think a stubby rear tailsection, similar to a Confederate designs bike would be pretty hot.

I hate to be the nay sayer... but I just dont see this bike turning out to be an aggressive rider. I see a good bit to many flaws in the design.... I don't mean this in a crochtety negative way though...

Yeah , I think it is cool , but.......
But in this economy it will be a hard sell , unless its super cheap . One thing its got going for it is Cafe Racer style bikes are popular right now .

Hi everybody!

First of all sorry again for not updating this post for a long time. However, things are going very slow and little details are taking us longer than expected. Designing the parts, doing a prototype, make it done by a third provider, testing and adjusting it, is not easy if you are not dedicated 100% to this task. I can ensure that all parts are very well thought and built. Too much I would said. But the result deserves it.

I have answer several mails answering questions related to the engineering part of the project. I say it very much convinced that there may be not flaws at all in here. We did not want to build something for a showroom, but to be able to perform! This is also the reason for the delay.

Now we are waiting for the fibers. It took as also long the define the proportions. Each millimeter counts. The provider is building them in carbon. Beauty parts, believe me. We are not in a hurry as we are enjoying the process. This was my first aim, enjoying the process of making it real. An idea becoming real. And of course, beauty.

I here upload a picture preparing the fibers dimensions and position.

Glad to finally see some more updated pics of this up here! Is there any chance of, when offering the kit, that on the rear tail they will have options so that it doesnt have the number panels?

I would make the number plate about half that size and have the bottom edge follow the angle of the bottum edge of the rear fender.

Oh, and i still want one! Can't wait to hear pricing!
